    Changing a Cultural Icon: The Academic Library as a Virtual Destination (3/17/2006)

    This excellent article covers a wide range of issues academic libraries are facing as the world of information becomes increasingly digitized.

Author Jerry Campbell is the CIO and Dean of University Libraries at USC.
